Hello my Xbox one S is burning, it heats up very quickly, is there anything I can do?

Does it have good air flow?

I don't know, there's not much air coming out.

I meant is it in a location with good air flow

#

Consoles do get hot.

Ah well it's in a room in my house after I don't have air conditioning. It's 27 degrees Celsius

Is anything blocking the fans on it.

There should be at least 2-3 inches of space on all sides. Also make sure it's not stood up vertically unless you have the stand for it, as that will block the vents.

Could you specify a bit more, a picture could help.

There's nothing on the 10-centimeter lathe, it's horizontal and I can't send a photo except in private.

Yeah, but it doesn't solve my problem 😂

Is the console shutting down and giving you a warning that it shut down to prevent overheating?

manic sun
#

Or is the console just getting hot?

arctic badge
#

No, it just heats up.

#

Then it's not burning. It's fine.

#

If it was overheating, it would shut down automatically and warn you about it.

Tech heats up when in use. It's normal.

Get a laptop cooling pad if concerned

Don't mess with the cooling of the console.

#

Just make sure there's sufficient space around the console and the area is clean and free of dust. No need for extra fans and cooling pads.
